Key Features
The Nuvo Zip-Kit Essential Compact Drum Kit is a portable acoustic setup for both classrooms and home practice. Its compact design lets the components pack neatly inside the bass drum, while padded backpack-style straps make it easier to carry between home, school, rehearsals, and gigs.
You get the essentials for developing your drumming, including an 8-inch snare, 10-inch string-operated hi-hat, kick pedal, 6-inch practice pad, adjustable stool, and 7A hickory sticks. Plus, the drums and cymbals are height adjustable, accommodating children and adult players. Four telescoping posts also give you room to add extra toms and cymbals as your setup develops. Left-handed? Simply reposition the pedals, snare, and hi-hat to create a suitable playing layout.
Please Note: Only suitable for players aged 8+
Product Ref: 362873
Keeping an acoustic kit manageable between playing sessions can be tricky, especially when space is limited. The Zip-Kit addresses this with a compact, self-contained design that lets its components pack inside the bass drum. Two padded backpack-style straps then help you carry the 5.8 kg kit between lessons, rehearsal spaces, school, home, or gigs. Once assembled, it measures 61.5 cm x 42.8 cm x 66.5 cm, with the height depending on your preferred setup. The kick pedal mechanism also folds into the bass drum's side, helping keep everything tidy when it is time to pack away.
You have the core components needed to begin developing your drumming skills. The 8-inch snare uses a two-ply hydraulic head with a power dot, while the 10-inch stainless steel hi-hat features a string-operated mechanism with a UHMWPE fibre actuator. A kick pedal with a two-tone silicone beater lets you switch between softer and harder strikes. There is also a 6-inch practice pad integrated into the lid, giving you a convenient surface for working on technique. An adjustable stool, PH2 drum key, and pair of 7A hickory sticks complete the setup.
The Zip-Kit can adapt as your playing develops. Its drums and cymbals are fully height adjustable using telescopic posts, making the kit suitable for children from eight years old through to adults. Four telescoping posts also allow extra toms and cymbals to be added when you want to expand beyond the Essential configuration. And if you play left-handed, you can quickly reposition the pedals, snare, and hi-hat to suit. This flexibility makes one compact kit useful across different players, heights, and stages of learning — particularly handy in classrooms where several students may share the same instrument.
Regular classroom use calls for a kit that's straightforward to set up, store, and maintain. The Zip-Kit uses simplified hardware and an integrated design to reduce the number of loose components, helping teachers and students manage quick changes between sessions. Its robust construction is designed with frequent educational use in mind, while the compact format takes up less storage space when packed away. A foam mute pad also helps keep snare volume at a more comfortable level during practice.
